PAUL Pierce scored 27 points to lead the Boston Celtics to a comfortable 104-80 win over the Charlotte Bobcats in yesterday's NBA action.
Boston's Nate Robinson had 16 points, including three 3-pointers in a 90-second span bridging the first and second quarters to key a 16-0 run. The Celtics have easily beaten the Bobcats in all three clashes this season.
Tyrus Thomas had 15 points and 10 rebounds to lead Charlotte, losers of five of six.
Hawks 112, 76ers 93
In Atlanta, Marvin Williams scored 21 points to power the Atlanta past struggling Philadelphia.
Jamal Crawford added 20 points for the Hawks, who have won five of six.
The 76ers, who have lost four in a row, were led by Lou Williams, who had 30 points. He hit his first 10 shots and finished 11 for 15 from the field and 7 of 10 on free throws.
Magic 117, Warriors 90
In Orlando, Florida, Dwight Howard had 28 points and 12 rebounds, and Orlando cruised to a victory over undermanned Golden State.
